Talk:Decimal32 floating-point format
Appearance
What implementations are there of this format?
Concerns about this page
The IEEE 754 standard goes to great lengths to separate the representation of the valid set of numbers in (say) decimal32 from the encoding of interchange formats (a particular representation in a string of binary bits), yet this article seems to muddle the concepts. Might it be better to follow the way it is described in the standard (clause 3)?
There are other problems too: 0.000000×10^−95 to 9.999999×10^96 is not the full range of the format in any sense; also (to be pedantic) the name of the format, in the standard, starts with a lower-case d.
